the sky bleeds grey

the sky bleeds grey
staining everything
infinite shades of colourless.
locked inside the icy grip
of frozen rain feelings.
unsettling silence
unsteady stillness
unnamed sadness


frigid wind blows cold
ruthlessly pillaging
all warmth, hope and happiness
leaving an empty wake
of turbulent apathy
unwelcome reality
unwarranted hostility
unending possibility


in the air a soggy chill
wieghing heavily
a crushing burden, merciless
smothering and silencing
pressured
helpless to resist
unresolved regrets
unshared fears
unable to connect

february rain falling steadily
beating relentlessly
ehcoing a distant lifeless lullabye
lonely waves of rythm and sound
unplayed melodies
unheard harmonies
unrestful dreams
